SpaceX stock sinks below $135 IPO price for the first time
The stock’s slide could test retail demand and shape pricing for other high-profile listings, analysts said.
- SpaceX shares dipped below their initial public offering price of $135 for the first time since the company's historic Wall Street debut last month.
- The stock's slide below $135 represents a steep 41% drop from its post-IPO record high of $225.64, which was reached just days after its June 12 launch on the Nasdaq.
- The downturn has erased more than $1 trillion in market value from SpaceX's peak, bringing its current valuation back down toward the $1.77 trillion mark implied by its initial listing.
- Analysts point to a mix of valuation anxiety and high volatility fueled by a very small public float—only about 4% of SpaceX shares are freely tradable—which dramatically magnifies price swings.
- The downward pressure comes at a critical time for the company, as SpaceX is scheduled to launch its crucial Starship Flight 13 on Thursday, a suborbital mission designed to test satellite payload deployment sequences.
